The Poker World Finds Twitter

Twitter recently announced a tool that lets you go back in time and find your very first tweet. So I decided to play around with it a bit and dig up the first tweets from the poker world.

As I was thinking of how to present these first tweets, it made sense to list them chronologically. It seems to tell an interesting tale when looked at that way. Of the 77 accounts I looked up, 45 (nearly 59%) posted their first tweet in 2009. And of the 45 people who graced us with their first tweet in 2009, nearly 78% did so between March and June.

Anyway, here we go . . .

2007

I thought my first tweet should be something thought provoking. Mission Accomplished! Follow me at @billrini
